Description

### Expected Behavior

The generated dostrings should be in proper format for Ansible Galaxy. The Galaxy website should parse the DOCUMENTATION etc markdown and render nice html.

Basically, it seems that with the currecnt version of Galaxy web, the format changed and ansible-specdoc-generated docs are somehow wrong.

Thanks for your work on this useful project!

### Actual Behavior

Only "Synopsis" is rendered.

Research direction

Start by comparing the generated docstrings with the Ansible Galaxy page linked in the issue, focusing on the DOCUMENTATION sections that render only their Synopsis. Identify the format mismatch with the current Galaxy web version; done means the generated module documentation renders its sections as HTML beyond Synopsis.
